What we fit in Bexhill-on-Sea

Thick insulation. Insulation thickness is chosen for your operating temperature, with heavier leaves for freezers.
Impact protection. Protection around the opening helps stop forklifts damaging expensive insulated leaves.
Tight seals. The leaf pulls in against its gaskets on closing so cold air stays where it belongs.
Electric sliding. Powered sliding doors that open on demand and close automatically, with full safety devices.
Pressure relief. Relief valves to balance pressure after the door closes or during defrost.

Typical scopes of work

Adding a heated pressure relief valve to a freezer room where suction makes the door hard to open once it closes.
Motorising a heavy manual cold store door with pull-cord activation, a safety edge on the closing leaf and photocells.
Fitting a hinged chiller door with a stainless steel finish to a walk-in cold room in a commercial kitchen.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Bexhill-on-Sea?

In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Access, phasing and timing

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
